Time to start posting nothing but chat gpt answers on Facebook. Because that’s probably what people will do.

You all realize this same shit is happening here right?

It’s a public forum 🤦‍♂️

And since this is the world we live in, most people proceed with that understanding.

This was not the case in 2007.

It's almost doublethink, people celebrating how the Fediverse is an open protocol for sharing public discussion and then going surprised-Pikachu at the notion that public discussion might be viewed by someone the don't want to view it.

If you don't mean for something to be public, don't post it on a public forum.

I remember when the FediPact people were saying various fediverse instances needed to defederate from Threads because Meta was going to use it to scrape comments…

My brother in Christ, you’re spewing your comments in a million directions with the ActivityPub protocol. They don’t even have to scrape, and defederating them won’t do shit.

Deleted my Facebook in 2006 because a terrible person from my hs died from a drug overdose when i was in my freshman year of college. I posted something like “death is sad but he was not a good person and i won’t miss him” and got jumped on by a bunch of people i already thought were annoying, so i said “fuck this whole website”. It was still when you needed to be in a school to join.

It’s been a crazy ride all these years watching all the terrible things that Facebook does, and people just keep using it. Helped elect trump. Steals and launders art. Takes advantage of all your data. Fosters terrorism and crimes. Just a huge shit hole. “but it has its own built in craigslist!” 🙄😒

Im not one to say you can never speak ill of the dead, but man to bash someone right after they die among a group of people that likely includes his friends requires a special type of social cluelessness, or straight up being a bad person.

And since it wasn't ever a secret that these services are for data harvesting, they got next to nothing from me. I mean does it make a substancial difference if they sell your data or use it to get to know you so they can do targeted advertising... Or train an AI with it? I'd say the latter isn't even that bad compared to the other business model. But yeah, be cautious about these tech companies. Generally speaking they're not invested in your privacy. On the contrary. If you value that, use other services. And it's been that way for quite some time.

Was that a well guarded secret?
